Murder At Tophouse A Crime

In a world struggling for balance, Blithe del Rosario, a celebrated fashion designer from Maha, Zubu in Maharlika, led a complex double life. By day, she was known for her breathtaking couture, each piece reflecting the rich culture and resilience of her homeland. However, beneath her captivating beauty lay a dark secret: by night, she transformed into the notorious assassin Lady Dragonfly. This alter ego, forged from necessity and survival, allowed her to blend into shadows, striking fear in the underworld as she sought vengeance for her parents' murder and searched for her missing brother. Meanwhile, in Alkebulan, Chain Singh ascended to the rank of five-star general, known as Marshal Law—the Battle War God of the Zuid Military Forces. Born Citrine Leohart-Curseal, his noble lineage added depth to his character. Renowned for his strategic brilliance and charismatic leadership, he was a key figure in military operations, respected yet feared by his peers. Despite his stoicism, Citrine grappled with the moral complexities of war, yearning for peace and a deeper understanding of his role in the ongoing violence. Their paths converged when Blithe and Chain Singh shared a passionate one-night stand, igniting Blithe's feelings for the plain Chain Singh. Unbeknownst to her, Chain Singh was already captivated by Lady Dragonfly, feeling a deep connection to her lethal persona. This created a complicated love square: Blithe's affection for the unassuming Chain Singh clashed with Citrine's feelings for Lady Dragonfly, whom he idolized without realizing her true identity. As Blithe avoided the Marshal Law persona, drawn only to the man behind the title, Citrine remained oblivious to the duality of the woman he loved. As their lives became increasingly entangled, emotional stakes grew higher. Blithe found herself torn between her thirst for vengeance and her unexpected love for Chain Singh. Simultaneously, Citrine's heart was caught in a bittersweet struggle, unknowingly pursuing a love intricately linked to the darkness Blithe was trying to escape. Their bond deepened further, leading to the birth of six children, which bound them in ways they had not foreseen. Together, they faced the weight of their pasts—Blithe with her relentless quest for justice and Citrine with the burdens of military command. Their complementary skills became vital assets in their shared pursuit of truth and a better future, blending Blithe's intuition and agility with Citrine's analytical prowess and strategic mind. As they ventured deeper into the tumultuous heart of their society, they encountered ruthless organizations, cunning scientists, and disillusioned citizens, each with their own agendas. The web of alliances and betrayals became increasingly complex, demanding that they navigate with caution and skill. Through this journey, they built a fragile yet profound trust, united in their common cause, while grappling with the tangled emotions stemming from their own love square.

After the nuclear war, the world was controlled by twenty mega-corporations that established a global government. Governed by AI, it judged everything. Gao Xin, who had only wished to live a peaceful life, inexplicably became a scapegoat for the elite and, unable to pay the imprisonment fee, was sentenced to ten years of exile on Crime Prison Island! On this island, there were no laws, no constraints, the only order being the numerous game arenas set up by the officials. The criminals could only participate like racehorses for the entertainment of the elite. Yet, on this prison island filled with Radiation, cyborgs, and many powerful villains, Gao Xin had no strength, no talent, and no background—like a sheep thrown into a crocodile pool, no different from being on death row. How could an ordinary person like him survive under the oppression of the strong, the geniuses, and the wicked? Unless in this world, there was a path, a path that allowed even the weakest to continuously break their shackles.

Her fear surged, boundless, as he closed the stained glass doors behind him. “Please… let me go,” she pleaded, trembling as he pulled her close, his touch burning against her skin. “You fled this place while carrying my child.

Yet that life shattered with a single conversation. One day, her father appeared in her chambers, eyes solemn, bearing news that upended her world. “You will be married,” he said, but the name wasn’t that of the man she cherished. Instead, she was to be wed to the ruthless crown prince of the rival Demon Empire, an alliance forged to quell the simmering tensions between their kingdoms. “Father, please…” she begged. “My child,” he murmured, his voice heavy with regret. “It is your duty as the firstborn princess. This marriage will protect the realm… and your little sisters.” For the first time in her life, Luciana saw him bow to her, his plea wordless but clear. Yielding to her father’s desperate request, she accepted her fate. In a single day, she went from princess to wife, her dreams abandoned and her future reshaped. But the white wedding gown was soon stained crimson, marking her descent into a life she could never have anticipated. Could she learn to accept a man for whom compassion was an unfamiliar luxury, or would the love she had left behind rise to rescue her?

I died… and woke up at the very moment everything fell apart. This time, I won’t let them ruin me. When Jaewon, my cheating fiancé, tried to drag me back into his web of lies, I made a choice that shocked everyone: I proposed to his older brother, Heeseung.

This is my second chance, and this time, I’ll make every move count."
